Asmongold admitted he was an “asshole” and vowed to “do better” on October 14, after complaining that he had no sympathy for the Palestinians because they were “terrible people” with an “inferior” culture.

The Twitch streamer and co-owner of the OTK Network admitted he made a mistake just hours after his comments about Palestine. "My mistake," he said on X (formerly Twitter). "Of course no one deserves to have their life ruined, even if they do things or have opinions that I find regressive. You guys deserve more than me saying such stupid things, I will do better."

Despite the apology, fans and critics called out the streamer for his half-hearted response to the controversial comments. "Typical PR post from OTK execs," said one user on X. "'My bad' shows how much empathy you clearly have," said another.

Following Asmongold’s tirade against Palentine, other Twitch streamers called for him to be banned from the platform. “Is @Twitch ever going to take action?” Kaceytron asked on X. “This is blatant advocacy for Arab genocide. How is this not a ban-worthy statement on Twitch?” PA’s Mike asked.
